<p>Hey! <span aria-label="wave" class="emoji emoji-1f44b" role="img" title="wave">:wave:</span> Over in the <code>rust-lang/stdsimd</code> repo we'd love to be able to run against a couple of niche platforms to make sure we're as portable as we promise.</p>
<p>I heard we have access to a PowerPC machine for CI? Is that available to any repo in <code>rust-lang</code>? We also have a M1-based Mac too, don't we?</p>

<p>I think those are only cross-compiled, we don't actually run tests on them</p>

<p>Tests are only on tier 1 platforms IIUC</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="232545">@Joshua Nelson</span> Some tests are run for some tier 2 platforms, sometimes in an emulator like qemu or node (js).</p>
